Preprečevanje in zdravljenje odvisnosti od interneta v povezavi z doživljanjem depresivnih simptomov pri mladih : magistrsko delo

Štrakl, David (avtor), Jerebic, Drago (mentor)

Avtor je v pričujočem delu raziskoval povezanost odvisnosti od interneta z depresijo med mladimi. V teoretičnem delu je najprej opisana odvisnost, dejavniki tveganja za odvisnost, opredeljen je pomen kemične in nekemične odvisnosti in pomen možganov na področju zasvojenosti. Nadalje je navedeno poglavje odvisnost od interneta, v katerem je pojasnjen pomen interneta, socialnega omrežja, tehnoloških pripomočkov in simptomi odvisnosti od interneta. Nato je opisana depresija, kako jo zdravimo in kako so depresivni simptomi pri mladih povezani z depresijo. Zadnje poglavje je namenjeno preventivi in zdravljenju odvisnosti od interneta. V empiričnem delu je avtor predstavil svoje ugotovitve. V raziskavi je sodelovalo 309 udeležencev starih med 14 in 30 let. Med udeleženci je bilo 145 moških in 164 žensk. Rezultati so pokazali, da je odvisnost od interneta statistično pomembno povezana z depresijo. Avtorja je zanimala tudi razlika med spoloma. Predvideval je, da je med moškimi in ženskami razlika v odvisnosti od interneta in depresije, vendar v njegovih rezultatih ni bilo statistično pomembne razlike. Obstajala je samo minimalna razlika v povprečju, kar pomeni, da so dekleta imela minimalno višje vrednosti za depresijo in fantje minimalno višje vrednosti za internetno odvisnost. Izračunal je statistično pomembno razliko med samskimi in tistimi v partnerski zvezi ter med študenti in zaposlenimi. Avtor je v raziskavi ugotovil, da je depresija pozitivno povezana z odvisnostjo od interneta. Ugotovil je tudi, da imajo samski večje tveganje za depresijo in odvisnost od interneta v primerjavi s tistimi v partnerski zvezi. Prav tako je potrdil, da imajo študenti večje tveganje za depresijo v primerjavi z zaposlenimi.

Izvleček

In the present work, the author investigated the association of Internet addiction with depression among young people. The theoretical part first describes addiction, the risk factors for addiction, the importance of chemical and non-chemical dependence, and the importance of the brain in the field of addiction. The chapter on Internet addiction then goes on to explain the meaning of the Internet, social networking, technological gadgets and the symptoms of Internet addiction. Depression is then described, how it is treated and how depressive symptoms in young people are related to depression. The last chapter is devoted to prevention and treatment of internet addiction. In the empirical part, the author presents his findings. The study involved 309 participants aged between 14 and 30 years. The participants were 145 men and 164 women. The results showed that Internet addiction is statistically significantly associated with depression. The author was also interested in the gender difference. He hypothesised that there is a difference between men and women in Internet addiction and depression, but there was no statistically significant difference in his results. There was only a marginal difference in the mean, meaning that girls had marginally higher values for depression and boys had marginally higher values for internet addiction. However, he calculated a statistically significant difference between singles and those in a partnership, and between students and employees. The author's study found that depression is positively associated with internet addiction. He also found that singles have a higher risk of depression and internet addiction compared to those in a relationship. He also confirmed that students have a higher risk of depression compared to employees.
